BLOCKCHAINS, INC. currently has 2 pending office actions in the Networking & Security technology area. These actions are distributed across distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. This ratio between the pending office actions and the examiners indicates that each pending matter is being handled by a different individual.
JAMSHIDI, GHODRAT is the busiest examiner for the company, with 1 pending office action. Because there are distinct examiners for the pending office actions, the workload is split evenly, with each examiner managing a portion of the work. The involvement of the 2 distinct art units suggests that the company's Networking & Security innovations are diverse enough to be reviewed by different specialized groups within the patent office. This distribution requires the company to manage separate prosecution tracks within the Networking & Security sector.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
